FEATURES FABPRO’s NY-LOK™ Nylon Fibers are designed to control early cracking in concrete caused by plastic shrinkage, plastic settlement and thermal expansion and contraction. NY-LOK™ Fibers offer excellent finish-ability that will save time and reduce labor costs. NY-LOK™ Nylon Fibers meet the requirements of ASTM C1116/C1116M “Standard Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete” and the requirements of ICC ES AC32 Section 3.1.1 for plastic shrinkage reinforcement. BENEFITS Measurably reduces the concrete permeability, thus increasing the durability and service life of the concrete. Provides three-dimensional reinforcement against micro-cracking. Provides excellent plastic shrinkage crack reduction and settlement control. Helps control thermal expansion and contraction. Increases the impact and abrasion resistance of concrete. PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS Specific Gravity 1.16 Melting Point 490-510°F (254-266°C) Thermal / Electrical Conductivity Low Water Absorption 4-5% Alkali & Acid Resistance Excellent Fiber Length 0.5” (13 mm) - 1.5” (38 mm) Color Natural FABPRO POLYMERS' NY-LOK™ Nylon Fiber DESCRIPTION NY-LOK™ Nylon Fibers meet the requirements of ASTM C1116/C1116M “Standard Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete” and the requirements of ICC ES AC32 Section 3.1.1 for plastic shrinkage reinforcement. APPLICATIONS Recommended for use in: Industrial and warehouse floors Commercial slab construction Concrete pavement Stucco Thin wall precast Composite metal decks Residential concrete Whitetopping and overlays
